The issue is that we want to call drm_vblank_off() in
intel_sanitize_crtc() for already disabled crtcs in order to
to bump the refcount and set inmodeset=1 so that
drm_vblank_get() won't try to enable vblank interrupts if someone calls
drm_vblank_get() on it. So during suspend+resume we can get two
drm_vblank_off() calls for the same crtc w/o a drm_vblank_on() in
between.

Although this patch doesn't actually fix the problem really since
vblank counter query during sanitize will just return 0 because the pipe
isn't active, so there's a later patch to just override .last=0 in
intel_sanitize_crtc(). Another approach might be to set .last=0 in
drm_vblank_off() itself (after vblank_disable_and_save()), mainly
just to hide the details from the caller.
